Transcript

Panel 1

(Cassie Cruz speaking to Jeremy, who is standing in front of a board with pictures of various Evil Inc employees.)

Cassie Cruz: Jeremy, we have to find out who has been leaking information to the heroes before they pin it on me! The only nursing home capable of caring for my mother is contingent on my job here! — And even they have their hands full!

Panel 2

(A flashback scene shows Cassie narrating while Princess Charming, an elderly woman in a wheelchair, is interacting with another patient in the nursing home.)

Cassie Cruz (narrating): As a top-tier mind-controller with dementia, my mom keeps reliving the past — and pulling innocent people into her world!

Panel 3

(A flashback continues with an orderly, wearing a red shirt, standing near Princess Charming. Green energy surrounds them as the orderly appears to be in a trance.)

Cassie Cruz (narrating): Last week, an orderly forgot to turn on his neuro-dampener last week. Before anyone knew it, he was reenacting a battle between Mom and Hijinx.

Jeremy: Was Hijinx a hero she used to fight?

Panel 4

Cassie Cruz (narrating): Worse. It was a villain she had a rivalry with.

Princess Charming: I wish I could be like you. It must be so freeing not to stress over every little pound!

Panel 5

(Orderly is sitting on a couch, speaking with a therapist)

Cassie Cruz (narrating): The poor guy has been in counseling ever since!

Orderly: I mean… I thought I looked cute in bangs!

Rosario Dawson’s Comic[ContactMusic.Com] Sin City star Rosario Dawson is such a huge comic book fan, she decided to create a cartoon strip of her own. The star and family friend David Atchison crafted a story and a character based on Dawson’s personality, image, background and attitude. She explains, “I co-created it. It’s called the OCT – the Occult Crimes Taskforce and Sophia Ortiz, who looks like me in the comic book, she is a detective who polices magic crime in New York City. “It’s really fun. It’s very smart. We’re really shopping it around right now. “We’re going to Comic-Con (comic book convention) this weekend in San Diego – it’s a pretty big deal. It’s going to be awesome! “I geek out on some of the artists out there myself because I’ve been following comics for a long time. “It’s a totally different industry. In Hollywood they’ll kiss your butt a little, but they do not kiss any butt there, it’s awesome!”

Rosario… I’m at Booth 1330 and my lips are baby soft.
